Patent Images
1. A system for transmitting data in a compressed format to a receiving device, comprising:
- a transmitter system to perform operations, the operations comprising;
transmitting compressed data to the receiving device;
transmitting a reentry data set to the receiving device having a pointer to a location in the compressed data and decoding information that enables decoding to start from the location, wherein the receiving device is capable of using the decoding information in the reentry data set to decode the compressed data from the location addressed by the pointer in the reentry data set.

Abstract
A system and program for decoding cached compressed data. Compressed data is received and decoded. An error is detected while decoding a first location in the compressed data. A reentry data set is accessed having a pointer to a second location in the compressed data following the first location and decoding information that enables decoding to start from the second location. The second location in the compressed data is accessed and the decoding information in the accessed reentry data set is used to continue decoding the compressed data from the second location.
